No more noise

Getting a brand new and up to date central heating and air conditioning system was the best thing I could have possibly done.

My old central heating and air conditioning system was noisy as ever.

It was actually always like that. And getting the brand new central heating and air conditioning system made me realize this. I always thought that central heating and cooling units made that much noise. It was not until finally getting a brand new one that I found that this was not the case at all. It is just that today’s central heating and air conditioning systems are built differently so they make much less noise. Also today’s heating and air conditioning systems ar much smaller than the old heating and air conditioning systems. This may have something to do with why they are not as loud and noisy as the old central heating and air conditioning systems. It is good this way because now I actually sleep better at night because when the thermostat turns on the central heating and air conditioning system unit it does not wake me up like it used to with the old one. The other good thing about my brand new and up to date central heating and air conditioning system was the fact that I was able to get it on sale for half off the normal price. That was a great lucky break that I had when I was not expecting it. I really am happy with my new HVAC system.

Living near the bay

I have a shore house near the bay that I go to in the summer time months of the year.

It is really great and I love the location and all.

The only drawback to this is the fact that because it is near the bay there is an awful smell in the air a lot of the time because of the fish smell all over the place. So I ended up buying a whole home air purification system to help with this smell. I was so glad I did because the whole home air purification system works really well in cleaning up the bad air quality that comes into my home from the bay. I had tried portable air purification systems and they did not help very much. The power of portable air purification systems just did not have what was needed to clear the bad air quality from the area. So I found out about whole home air purification systems and went to invest in one. It was from a friend of mine who told me that was what he did. And this made me even more curious about whole home air purification systems. I knew though that if my friend said it worked then the whole home air purification system was for sure going to be the answer to all of the issues I was having. I got on an HVAC payment plan with my local heating and air conditioning company and was able to purchase the whole home air purification system that way. It really was the best answer to the bay area’s bad air quality.

Lunch in the car

The other day I went to this diner when I was on lunch break from work to grab something to eat.

Usually I would go in and sit down to eat. However when I walked in I ended up deciding to take out and each lunch in my car! This was because the central heating and air conditioning system’s cooling was not working right. It felt like there was no air conditioning at all in there and it was almost one hundred degrees in there. There was no way I was going to sit and try to enjoy lunch in an inferno with no air conditioning! I waited for my food and felt like I was going to die just waiting for the food in the place! Finally when my food was ready I got right out of there and got into my car cranking the central heating and air conditioning system’s cooling. The air conditioning in my car worked real well. I do not know how the people that worked in the diner could even stand it and not get sick! I guess maybe they got so used to it being hot in there with no air conditioning that they were able to deal with it. I know I would have walked out and quit my job if where I work ever had bad or no air conditioning in weather like this. I need air conditioning to survive! Especially when you are dealing with temperatures like what we have going on outside at this very moment in time.

I don’t want to buy another HVAC system already

After my latest HVAC inspection I have a sneaking suspicion the people who built this house were criminals.

  • I am not about to contact the police, because that would only cause trouble for myself.

Admittedly I have a history of not trusting the police, but I do not feel that now would be a good time to start. Besides, would they even care that six years ago the contractor I used to build my home gave me a stolen air conditioning system? I assume the HVAC system was stolen, based on what the tech told me today. Over the last six years I will admit to receiving excellent service from both my heating and my cooling system. I had no reason to doubt the good standing of the contractor until recently, during my annual HVAC inspection. The technician noticed some irregularities, and did a deep dive into the heart of the HVAC components. He found that all of them had their serial numbers filed away. All major pieces of HVAC equipment come with serial numbers etched into the steel, so they can be tracked. These serial numbers had been ground down as to be illegible, so there was no telling where these HVAC components actually came from. I spoke with the owner of my new HVAC company, who told me there was very little I could do about my situation. There was no way of finding the old HVAC contractor, who had long ago moved out of town. I just needed to face the fact that I was going to need a new HVAC system very soon.

The air quality affects my pot plants

The house came with a huge basement, which is part of the reason I picked it.

I grew up way down south, where the water table is too high for any home to have a basement.

Up north things are different, and I loved the idea of having a full sized room, beneath the house. This would be the best possible place to grow cannabis plants, because they would be completely hidden from the outside world. I didn’t need natural sunlight, I had equipment for that. What I needed was a nice climate controlled room to focus my growing operation. The house is heated by a furnace that is over thirty years old. It still generates heating as well as ever, but its age and antiquity make it far less efficient than a modern heater. This was also something that could work to my advantage, because the furnace generated a lot of humidity. The furnace was also the hot water heater, which put excess levels of moisture into the air of the basement. Since my pot plants needed a good source of ambient moisture, this would be a great way to kill two birds with one stone. The only potential problem will come during the dog days of summer, when I won’t be able to run the furnace, which will lower the humidity levels. I assume I can find a nice humidifier to run during the summer months and keep my plants healthy. It will take some degree of trial and error to find the perfect air quality and humidity levels for my growing operation.

I love my fireplace

I personally don’t think it’s weird that I didn’t have a working air conditioner for the last few years.

All of my friends did, of course.

When they saw my log cabin, sitting on the edge of a beautiful lake, they were impressed. Once they went inside and felt how warm and stuffy it got, they never wanted to come back. I didn’t get offended, because I understood that all of my friends are spoiled brats that cannot handle a few hours without climate control. Most people have become dependent on air conditioning, and they feel quite uncomfortable when they have to go without it. They would ask “how can you live without A/C?” And I would explain that I just opened the windows to let in some natural ventilation to cool the place down. My only concern was not with cooling, but with heating. The winters around here can get bitterly cold, and snowstorms will frequently knock out the power lines. Although life can be a little stifling and uncomfortable without A/C, a lack of heating can be lethal in the cold months. Thankfully my cabin has a fireplace made of brick and stone. I keep several weeks worth of firewood in the drying rack next to the fireplace, which means I don’t need electricity to keep myself warm. During the winter my cabin and my fireplace are both very popular with my friends. Once the summer starts they don’t come over as often, preferring to stay in the comfort of the air conditioning they have in their homes.

The value of long term HVAC service

I do all of my holiday shopping in one day. I have done this ever since I was a teenager. At first it was because Black Friday had all the best deals, so I wanted to do all the shopping on that day. Over time it became a matter of convenience. Why would I want to spend all month cruising around to 100 different stores when I could knock it all out in one fell swoop? Thanks to online shopping, now I can do it all in one day and never have to leave the house. This year I saved enough money to afford a special gift for myself – an annual HVAC service plan from the local contractor. In the past I thought these programs were just a scam from the HVAC industry to take more of my money. I have come to learn the value of long-term care and maintenance for a central HVAC system. Over the course of a year I might have to spend $500 on my HVAC upkeep. For that same amount of money I can invest in the HVAC service plan, which includes regular inspections and maintenance for no additional charge. These service visits keep the HVAC system working in peak condition, making it more efficient and extending its life span as well. This is a case of paying a little right now, to save a lot in the future. Buying a brand new HVAC system may cost as much as ten thousand dollars, so I want my system to work for a very long time.
